Blockers is a relatively newer R rated comedy, released in 2018 and having making somewhat of a profit (although perhaps the studios thought it would be bigger). The comedy in this film is as in which we have seen before, from these type of teen sex comedies. A lot of jokes were quite predictable and just weren't funny. The premise is good decent as it is gender opposite and makes sense in a way, but overall the comedy just wasn't funny.
The cast was good, John Cena as the over protective father was perhaps the highlight. Other than that, the film is predictable in the end, with somewhat of a sequel type ending. However, this film probably won't end up getting a sequel due to it not being that big of a success. And perhaps its for the best.

Predictable humor
Awful comedy
Imagine a "R" rated Disney Channel movie about three dorky females that created a sexpact to lose their virginity on prom night. The humor is dull and stupid.
I'm not sure who the demographic audience this film was meant for because it's littered with sexual references, both verbal and physical innuendos. As an adult comedy it fails miserably, and a teen film I don't think I would be comfortable recommending this film.
This film is grotestically overrated.
Comedy? Or desperate to sell a film?
Speaking as someone who grew up in the modern era, iPhones, Sex and the City, etc... I can say this film goes too far. Do you really think that scenes showing beer up the « you know what » is a smart move? Are writers lacking that much imagination to write good comedy? You know young teens watch these movies? These are the messages you want to put out there? Really? Not good comedy, just seriously lacks cleverness and imagination. It's no wonder I hear more and more people watching comedies from earlier years.
